Domo is a cloud-based business intelligence (BI) platform that connects data from across your organization to deliver real-time insights through interactive dashboards.

Set up a connection

This video demonstrates creating a DOMO connection.

After you start the connection, configure it in the Create connection panel and complete all of the required * authentication settings:

Setting

Instructions

Name your connection * 

Enter a clear and distinguishable name.

Throughout integrator.io imports and exports, you will have the option to choose this new connection. A unique identifier will prove helpful later when selecting it from a list of the connections in your account.

API type * 

Choose your Domo account API type:

  • Platform API: Connect to automate admin tasks, control access, and integrate platform-level operations with other systems.

  • Product API: Connect to build interactive user experiences, embed Domo content, and extend the platform with tailored business solutions.

Auth type * 

Select your Domo account authentication type (either Basic or OAuth 2.0).

Auth type: Basic 

Username *  

Enter your Domo account username.

Password * 

Enter your Domo account password.

Multiple layers of protection, including AES 256 encryption, are in place to keep your password safe. When editing this connection, you must re-enter this value each time; it is stored only when the connection is saved and never displayed as text.

Auth type: OAuth 2.0 

OAuth 2.0 client * 

Select the OAuth 2.0 client that stores the client ID and client secret provided to you by Domo.

How to retrieve the client ID and client secret 

To add an OAuth 2.0 client and configure your credentials, click the plus (+) button. Click the edit (pencil.svg) button to modify a selected OAuth 2.0 client. For more information, see Create an OAuth 2.0 iClient resource

Scope * 

Scopes are OAuth 2.0 permissions that Domo defines to limit access to your account.

How to configure scopes 

API type: Domo Product API 

Subdomain *  

Enter your Domo account subdomain. For example, if your Domo account URL is https://celigo-1.domo.com/, then celigo-1 is the subdomain.

Access token * 

Enter your Domo API key. 

Multiple layers of protection, including AES 256 encryption, are in place to keep your token safe. When editing this connection, you must re-enter this value each time; it is stored only when the connection is saved and never displayed as text.
